The event participants, standing in front of the iconostasis of the cathedral, prayed for peace in Ukraine. Simultaneously, a similar action was held at the primate basilica of the RCC in Gniezno (Poland). The basilica and St. Sophia Cathedral were connected via teleconference.
At the conclusion of the event, the mufti and his colleagues recited the prayer "Our Father".
